About The Position

We are a fun and busy family looking for a House Manager & Family Assistant to help us find a better balance between juggling work, play, and everything in between. As entrepreneurs and business owners, both parents are constantly balancing demanding careers, speaking engagements, and educational trips. Life can often feel like a whirlwind! Our goal is to be fully present with each other, without the constant stress and overwhelm of juggling work and home life. We need someone who can help bring harmony to our home—taking on the logistics, the organizing, and the day-to-day tasks—so we can focus on what truly matters: spending more quality time together, stress-free and fully engaged. While we have a fantastic Nanny who works alongside us, helping with childcare and maintaining the kids schedule(s), we’re looking for someone to serve as the primary coordinator for household logistics, scheduling, and overall family coordination. You’ll work closely with our Nanny and other household providers, but your main focus will be to extend the support and vision of the family, ensuring everything from meal prep to vendor coordination is taken care of with efficiency and care. If you’re someone who enjoys wearing many hats, this role is a perfect fit! You’ll be the central person who keeps our household running like a well-oiled machine. From managing the family schedule and coordinating appointments to handling meal prep, laundry, and providing childcare backup, you’ll be the go-to for making sure everything falls into place. Your efforts will allow the parents to focus on what truly matters—spending quality time together! This role is the heartbeat of our household operation. You’ll bring structure, warmth, and a sense of calm to our busy home, all while keeping things light and fun. If you're passionate about organizing, coordinating, and ensuring everything stays on track in a lively family environment, this role is made for you! The ideal candidate is a self-starter who loves organizing, solving problems, and staying on top of tasks. You should be detail-oriented, proactive, and able to handle a variety of responsibilities with a positive attitude. We need someone who can keep the family’s logistics running smoothly, all while being a friendly, warm presence in the home. We’re looking for a team player who can collaborate with our Nanny, parents, and service providers—someone who enjoys bringing structure to a busy home while keeping it fun and relaxed.
